Nursery Admissions

We have two areas in our Nursery - APPLE Class is for children aged 3-4 years and PEAR Class is for children aged 2-3 years.

APPLE Class Admissions to start in September

Parents will be notified if they have been allocated a nursery place by the end of March to start in September. You are welcome to apply after that time, but you may be placed on a waiting list.

PEAR Class Admissions to start in September

Parents will be notified if they have been allocated a nursery place by the end of May to start in September. You are welcome to apply after that time, but you may be placed on a waiting list. PEAR Class places are chargeable unless your child qualifies for FEET funding or 15 hours free childcare.

If we have space in our nursery, we can admit children throughout the academic year. If you have any questions please contact the school office and we will be happy to help. You can download an application form below.

Please note that children attending the nursery at West Ewell Primary School will not automatically secure a Reception place at the school. There is a separate admissions process to join Reception (please see the Main School Admissions section above). Reception places will be offered based on the published admissions criteria. No preferential treatment is given to those attending the nursery at West Ewell Primary School.

What another incredible day for our Year 6s! We’ve taken to the water again, soared through the air on the zip wire, tested our aim with axe throwing and, most importantly, laughed, supported each other and made memories that will last a lifetime!  #WEPSway— West Ewell Primary School (@west_ewell) Sep 17, 2026

Day 1 of our Year 6 residential at Buddens has been incredible! We’ve climbed, we’ve conquered and we’ve taken on the water with some paddleboarding! Amazing weather, brilliant teamwork and plenty of smiles along the way. What a start to Year 6! #WEPSWay— West Ewell Primary School (@west_ewell) Sep 15, 2026

It's been lovely to welcome our new Reception children into school. They've already been very busy making new friends, exploring their environment and getting messy! #WEPSway— West Ewell Primary School (@west_ewell) Sep 15, 2026
